How Flood Cleanup Works in Ramona

-
Remove standing water
A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.
-
Map moisture
Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.

Remove soaked material
Damaged drywall sections can be taken out to expose wet framing. The opening is documented for later rebuilding.

Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
